Lens Type: Varifocal Lenses

What are progressive lenses? Multifocal lenses help people see clearly across all distances, without the need to switch glasses. An alternative to bifocals or trifocals, they correct refractive errors like presbyopia (age-related far-sightedness, common in people over the age of 40).

How do they work? A channel (or corridor) of different lens powers runs down the front of a progressive lens. This seamless channel allows the wearer to look up to see objects at a distance, look straight ahead to see objects at middle distance, and down to read or do other close-up activities without changing glasses.

What are the benefits? Progressive lenses are often preferred aesthetically as they don’t have the visible line that marks the two different zones of a bifocal lens (or lines, in the case of a trifocal lens). Instead, progressive lenses provide a seamless graduation of lens strength. This avoids the jump in vision a wearer gets with bifocals and trifocals, and actually trains the eye to improve vision.

Scratch-resistant coating

An anti-scratch or scratch-resistant coating is a coating that is applied to your optical lens surface. The coating does not interfere with your vision quality or the lens function, but creates a permanent bond with the lens that reduces the appearance of hairline scratches which is common to prescription lenses. Though an anti-scratch coating is not 100% scratch-proof, it helps to prevent minor scratches that can easily happen to a regular lens. These minor scratches can damage the surface of the lens and impair vision. An anti-scratch coating acts as a protective layer that making the lenses more durable.

Anti-scratch/Anti-glare coating

An anti-glare or anti-reflective coating helps to reduce glare and reflections on optical lenses. With uncoated lenses, much of the light reflects off the lenses, this produces glare and can reduce vision clarity. Light reflections are a visual and cosmetic problem. Anti-reflective coatings increase light transmission through the lenses. They make it easier to see and easier for others to see you. These coatings are especially useful for those viewing computer screens and driving at night.
